Pizza Boxes for Droste Effect magazine

Pizza Box is a special project held by Droste Effect Magazine. The project aims to reflect on the nature and format of magazines’ printed editions, and on the way in which images tell us different stories.

Each Pizza Box is unique, and is curated by an artist, a theorist, a critic, or a curator. Pizza Boxes may present themselves in variable sizes and shapes.

The Pizza Box is at the same time a tribute to Andy Warhol’s time capsule, and a container presenting a timeless dimension. The Pizza Box neither preserves objects of the past, nor reflects on the passage of time. Pizza Boxes are just containers for rough images – the same images we can’t live without.

For The Others contemporary art fair, that took place in Turin on November 6-9, 2014, Droste Effect presented the Pizza Box project with an installation of 11 Pizza Boxes – 8 of which curated by Droste Effect (Vincenzo Estremo, Dania Rotatori, Matilde Soligno), and 3 commissioned to international artists: Sue Lim, Andrei Warren Perkovic, and Massimo Ricciardo.
